I came across something called a trichilemmal cyst and I'm not sure if it's the same thing as a hair follicle cyst or a hair pillar cyst. Could you explain the differences? Also, how much would it cost to get a trichilemmal cyst removed?

View allI'm dealing with a pretty stubborn rash on my inner thigh that I think might be a ringworm. I've tried using Itchguard and Candid B cream, but they don't seem to be helping much. Is there a different antifungal cream or medicine you could recommend for better results?
Lulican cream for local application for atleast 2 weeks is advised to the patient.

I've been dealing with some stubborn deep spots on my face left over from acne. I've heard about Episoft AC cream and was wondering if it'd be effective in getting rid of these marks? Or if there are any other solutions you could suggest, that'd be awesome. I'm really looking for something that can help clear my skin up a bit. What do you think?

I'm wondering if Tivenca gel can be used instead of Papulex for my face, and if it's safe to leave on overnight. Could you let me know if that's okay?
Tivenca gel is not a direct replacement for Papulex for the face. Papulex is specifically formulated for acne-prone skin and contains ingredients like nicotinamide and zinc PCA to help control excess oil production and reduce inflammation. Tivenca gel, on the other hand, is primarily used for the treatment of various skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. It is best to consult with a dermatologist to determine the most suitable treatment for your skin condition. For acne treatment, you can consider using Papulex gel on the affected areas of the face in the evening before bedtime. It is recommended to apply a thin layer of the gel and leave it on overnight for best results.
